Senior Microsoft Cloud Security Consultant

💰 Up to £75,000

📍 Home based (Must be in UK) with occasional travel to client sites/office.

Company & role

This opportunity sits with a growing cyber security consultancy that is building a strong reputation across the Microsoft ecosystem. They focus on helping organisations secure and optimise their cloud environments, with a strong emphasis on modern workplace, identity and threat protection.

You will join a hands on consulting team where you are trusted to own your work, your development and how you deliver. The environment is built around capable people being given the space to do what they do best, without unnecessary layers or rigid process.

The work is varied across advisory, design and implementation, giving you exposure to different technologies, clients and challenges while allowing you to shape your own path within the Microsoft Security space.

Why This Role Stands Out

This is very much a master of your own craft environment. You will have the autonomy to approach problems in your own way, backed by a supportive and experienced team.

You are not limited to a single area. You will build broad capability across the Microsoft Security stack while having the freedom to lean into the areas that interest you most.

There is a strong focus on learning and development. Whether it is certifications, new technologies or hands on experience, you will be encouraged to continuously evolve.

You will get exposure to emerging areas like AI security and Copilot, not just the standard security tooling.

Ideal Experience

• Experience working with Azure and Microsoft cloud services
• Hands on experience with Microsoft Security technologies such as Entra, Defender suite, Sentinel, Intune or Defender for Cloud
• Experience delivering security solutions in a consulting or project environment
• Comfortable managing your own workload and priorities across multiple engagements
• Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly
• Desirable experience includes exposure to other cloud platforms, understanding of AI security concepts, scripting knowledge and familiarity with security frameworks
